Shooting Reminder Of Other Tragedies

Posted: Mon 8:22 PM, Apr 16, 2007

Bad things keep happening in mid-April. This Friday is the eighth anniversary of the Columbine massacre in Colorado, when two teenage gunmen killed 12 of their schoolmates and a teacher before killing themselves. This Thursday is the 12th anniversary of the Oklahoma City bombing, when Timothy McVeigh detonated a truck bomb outside a federal building killing 168 people. Also on Thursday, the 14th anniversary of the Branch Davidian incident near Waco, Texas. That's when federal agents stormed a building that soon erupted in flames, killing almost 80 people. And today, the massacre at Virginia Tech, with 33 dead including the gunman. It, too, will become a grim April anniversary.
